What is the ruling on sleeping on one's stomach

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Is there anything remaining regarding sleeping on the stomach, O Shaykh? Has anything been reported about it being disliked or otherwise?

Answer : If there is a need, there is no harm in it, just as if a person’s stomach hurts and he sleeps on it, there is no blame on him, or if he sleeps on it to rest. But without such a need, they should not sleep on their stomachs.
